MONDAY
Week of 08/20/18:
I feel like the frequency model is still working, so I'm going to run with it for at least one more week. Of course there will be adjustments for the week, so as not to burn you out!
With that said I'm going to present a general format for the upcoming week, where you the lifter have ultimate freedom!!! Scary I know.
Please follow the percentages carefully as not to over train
MONDAY: 40 - 55 % max (light): 3 sets/ 12 - 15 reps (strength conditioning)
TUESDAY: 55 - 70% max (medium): 4 sets/ 7 - 10 reps (body building)
WEDNESDAY: 70 - 85% of max (heavy): 5 sets/ 3 -6 reps (strength)
THURSDAY: same format as TUESDAY
FRIDAY: same format as MONDAY
You have total freedom of choice when it comes to choosing your exercises. You can repeat some if you like, that's why the percentages are there OR choose new exercises each day for each body part.
NOTE: "Assistance work" will fall within the light to medium range for the week.
I will lay Monday out for you so you have the visual, but after that it's fill in the blanks, by you.
